Featuring a friendly boy driving a sporty car, it includes an optional beeping alarm and night light mode. Pediatrician recommended, this 8-inch tabletop clock is designed to improve early riser behavior and support healthy sleep habits for toddlers. ## Description The Stoplight Sleep Enhancing Alarm Clock from It's About Time is a fun and simple way for toddlers to answer their own question, "is it time to get up?" At a young age, toddlers know their colors and understand that red means stop and green means go. Toddlers know if it's time to get up or stay in bed by looking at the stoplight. When the red light is on, kids will understand that it is still time to sleep. When the green light turns on, kids will know that it is time to get out of bed. Recommended by pediatricians. Review: What a GREAT invention!!! - This clock light is amazing. It does exactly what it is supposed to do! Let me start with a background... I have a 2 3/4 year old & a 13 month old. They share a bedroom. All of a sudden since the time "sprung ahead" and it got bright out earlier and earlier, my 2 year old decided he should get up earlier. He used to sleep until 8am, then all of a sudden we were getting up at 630. He also kept waking up my other son, "Cameron it's time to get up, the suns up!!" So my kiddos were up earlier and earlier every day. Finally, a friend told me about this clock & sure enough I found it on desertcart. It is a little pricy for a 'clock' but I took the plunge. Boy am I glad I bought this. It works great. The light is red when he has to 'stay in bed' You set the clock for whatever time you would like it to switch to green. So I tell my kids when it's green you can open your eyes! Also, it's nice there is a setting for just the amber yellow light as a night light. I've been setting the color change to happen at 730am (you can also set it to have an actual alarm sound, but we don't use that feature at this time - maybe when the kids are in school) It is hilarious in the morning, I can hear my son get up around 630 and mumble to himself, "it's red, stay in bed" haha ... but once 7:30 comes around, he says "Mom! Dad! It's green! Time to get up!" I love this thing. Gives my husband, myself and our 13month old an extra hour of sleep (much needed). We plan on slowly adding 5 minutes every few days to get back to 8am. If you are in the same situation, I definitely recommend this item. It works great. I will adjust my review if anything comes up! :) Review: BEST purchase for early riser toddler - Our son was waking up at 5am, sometimes as early as 4:30am. Way too early in our household! He had been a 7am riser which is much more our style. When we started using this clock, my son was still working on talking but he understood red lights and green lights when we drove in the car so I thought this would be a concept he would understand. We started setting the clock at 6am. The first few mornings he woke up before his light had turned green. We would go in his room (he's in a crib still) and let him know he couldn't get up until it turned green. He wasn't happy but after a few days he got it! Once he understood the concept, we started setting the clock later and later until we got him back to 7am! This clock has literally been a lifesaver. We have an infant daughter too and my son who is very loud was waking everyone in the house. A few things that aren't great about the clock - 1. When the power goes out, the clock turns off (even though you put batteries in it). If your power goes back on, it will have the correct time. Not a big deal if your child is already asleep or stays asleep during the power outage. 2. We use this clock for nap time as well but since there is only one alarm setting, we have to change the alarm time twice a day (not that big of a deal). 3. For us (this may not matter to some children), our kids are used to sleeping in dark rooms with no night lights. The red light that shines all night was too bright for our son so we put electrical tape over the light and clock numbers (made the clock not as cute). It still glows red which he likes but without the tape it was a little too bright (for us). 4. My son thought this was a toy because of the cute little boy in the car. Also not a huge deal. It is up high where he can't reach it but there was some whining and tears in the beginning because he really wanted to play with it. He knows now that just mommy and daddy can touch the clock. Overall, this has been one of our best purchases as parents! Our son calls "I'll call you when the light turns green" every night as we close his door. ## Features - Sleep enhancing alarm clock for kids featuring a stoplight and sculpted figure - Toddlers know if it's time to get up by looking at the stoplight - Red light means it’s time to sleep; green light means it’s time to wake up - Digital clock and optional beeping alarm function included - Features a friendly boy driving a red and blue car with sports emblems ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B002TKLN46 | | Additional Features | Alarm | | Alarm Clock | Yes | | Batteries are Included | No | | Best Sellers Rank | #4,806,865 in Home & Kitchen ( See Top 100 in Home & Kitchen ) #186 in Kids' Room Clocks | | Brand | It's About Time | | Brand Name | It's About Time | | Clock Form | Vehicle | | Color | Multicolor | | Customer Reviews | 4.2 out of 5 stars 1,120 Reviews | | Dial Color | Red | | Display Type | Digital | | Frame Material | Plastic | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00813132015916 | | Indoor Outdoor Usage | Indoor | | Item Dimensions W x H | 7.5"W x 8"H | | Item Height | 8 inches | | Item Type Name | Alarm Clock | | Item Weight | 1.5 Pounds | | Manufacturer | The Stoplight Alarm Clock | | Manufacturer Warranty Description | It's about time warranties their products against defects noted upon receipt. | | Material Type | Plastic | | Mounting Type | Tabletop | | Number of Items | 1 | | Operation Mode | Electrical | | Power Source | Battery Powered | | Product Dimensions | 7.5"W x 8"H | | Shape | Car | | Special Feature | Alarm | | Style | Digital | | Style Name | Digital | | Theme | Sport | | UPC | 885446798854 044968490176 885127499186 885199416081 885126506380 885793543848 813132015169 813132015916 701412316528 885242233375 | | Watch Movement | Automatic | ## Product Details - **Brand:** It's About Time - **Color:** Multicolor - **Display Type:** Digital - **Style:** Digital - **Special Feature:** Alarm - **Product Dimensions:** 7.5"W x 8"H - **Power Source:** Battery Powered - **Room Type:** Kid's Room - **Shape:** Car - **Material:** Plastic ## Images ![Boy in Car - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/512yCYlTkxL.jpg) ![Boy in Car - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61MNVOaR05L.jpg) ![Boy in Car - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61PG8YSsX2L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ What a GREAT invention!!! *by 9***N on June 1, 2013* This clock light is amazing.

In fact, she co-slept with us until she was 15 months because while she would be in her crib for the first few hours into the night, she would scream 2 hours after bedtime to be in bed with us. I struggled through many different sleep methods and finally decided to use the cry it out method, coupled with this light. The consistency, plus using the red/green feature helped tremendously. I always turn my own alarm on 2 minutes before her light turns green so that the moment it turns green I can be in there and say, "good morning, green light", establishing trust. So she knows green means she can get out of her crib. It's a life saver! Unlike other reviewers, I don't think the light is too bright. It is very clear for her to see which I like, but it does not face her while she sleeps do it doesn't get in the way of her sleeping. It does look very cheaply made, but is also sturdy and heavy. The paint is uneven, you can see the big globs of glue, but I don't mind. It's not attractive, but it does exactly what I need it to do. It's true that a nap feature would be nice because in order to establish consistency I use this too. However, it's very easy to change the alarm. Simply press Set twice then put in the time, the press Set again. A little inconvenient, but then again, so is not getting any sleep. In short, well worth the money. I'm thinking if buying another one just in case and for traveling, but am a bit hesitant since others have complained that theirs did not work after some time. So far, mine has worked out very well.
